RE: [Cobertura-devel] Use with Applets

[Mick F. <mic...@li...>]

Hi Jeremy,
 
Thanks for the reply.
 
The Applet runs in Internet Explorer. I've looked at the .class files in the
.jar, and they all contain instrumentation. The fact that it works when I
run the 'main' method (added for testing) from the command line (using
exactly the same .jar file) implies to me that the problem lies somewhere in
the Applet mechanism...
 
Mick.

I guess to follow up on this to see if we can help, the most important
question would be: how are you running the applet?  98% of the time when we
get these questions (although we haven't necessarily had any for an applet
yet), it's that the instrumented classes either aren't in the runtime
classpath or are below the un-instrumented classes.  Have you verified that
the classes in your jar are the instrumented ones?

I'm not really sure how applets work... Normally the cobertura.ser file is
updated only when the JVM exits.  So if you access the applet from a web
browser, would you have to exit the web browser to cause the JVM to be
killed?  Also, applets run on the machine you access them with, not the
machine they're served from, right?  (So the cobertura.ser would be written
to the client's hard drive.)  I have a feeling they're the same in this
case, but that might be something to look out for.
